Great catch thank you. If i don’t correct that post in 6 weeks can you remind me?
McDavid becomes only the 3rd player ever to score at least 90 points 9 seasons in a row!

I'll remind you when Pettersson does it. I don't think the other three will get it done

Not the biggest fan, his resume is really pretty awesome. Just needs a cup I hope he never gets.
Again I won’t begrudge him. Great player.
Again I won’t begrudge him. Great player.
I think any hockey fan should want him to win at least 1 cup. Hate him or love him. I don't think people understand what kind of player we are seeing here in the moment. Truly amazing players, warts like any other. But could be our next 2,000 point player if all goes well.
It would be a shame if he doesn't win one. I really don't care what team it's on. I mean like Lindros, least he made it to a finals and made it to game 7. But still.
It's like people not appreciating what OV is doing and about to make history.

I’m being extremely petty. I hope he never does. But I’m sure I’m a small minority in this and I’m fine with that

While I do want him to win a cup, I don't think it should be held against him if he doesn't. His playoff resume speaks for itself, and I'm not even including his Conn Smythe. If McDavid never wins a cup, it won't because of any doing of his own, but the supporting cast around him.

McDavid is incredibly skilled and his resume is extremely impressive, but man the disrespect for Crosby and Ovechkin in this thread...recency bias is insane. Grats to McDavid for his continued trophy case of awards as well, hope he can get the big one.
I respect the honesty. Wish more posters were like this instead of hiding behind the guise of objectivity.

He needs 1 cup (likely adds a 2nd smythe) + 1 more ross/hart/lindsay to end clear 3rd all time for me
Its crazy how he is so absurdly godly at hockey when considering his physical traits aren't anything special from the surface level.
Absurd skating genes/bio, absurd IQ and brain/time processing which lets him control the game at his pace.
I didnt think Mcdavid would be this good back in 2015. His first two OHL seasins didnt point to this level if player at all. From age 17 onwards he just became unstoppable

He didnt have Maxime Talbot scoring two goals in a low scoring game 7 for him
McDavid before his final year in the OHL looked closer to a John Tavares/Stamkos/Kane type prospect. His final year he and the Otters exploded.
Anyone who didnt watch pre lockout hockey and pretends Mcdavid isnt the best player they have seen play hockey is delusional.
He is a player with no weakness and destroys defenses at historical levels come playoffs.
All the arguments for other players being better than him due to cups are the same Arguments people made to Pretend Jonathan Toews was a Franchise top 3 player during the Hawks prime years

Crosby was just as productive as him on a per game basis and anyone who can't figure out that it is easier to score now is delusional.
Crosby brings other attributes to his game that can reasonably be pointed to why he has won at every level of hockey he has ever played, and notably has lead Team Canada to its most successful run under his watch.

Crosby let an 18 year old Mcdavid be a better player then him while only 28.
Hes a top 10 player all time sure, but he was a lot easier to shut down which is why he produced so poorly multiple times in the playoffs.
2009 SCF, 2013 ECF, 2014 ECSF, 2015 ECQF, the whole 2016 playoffs and then recently vs isles in 2019 and 2021
Crosby is overrated like Toews was from 2013 to 2015 in comps vs Mcdavid.
Toews won at every level of hovkey he played too from 05 to 15. Some people were ranking him top 2/3 player in the league as a result of being on super stacked teams.
He was 20, BTW.
Crosby was too busy winning Stanley and World Cups to worry about meaningless regular season games in April. He was leading him in PPG the whole year. Noone views a 20 year old or even a 21 year old McDavid as being better than Crosby. Many people would have still taken Crosby for a the playoffs until 2022.
It appears though that a 28 year old McDavid is letting a few players be better than him now.
He was the best playoff performer of his era, period.
McDavid didn't show up until it was too late in his only SCF.

Mcdavid has been better hockey player than Crosby since 18 maybe even as a 17 year old tbh
Crosby in 2016 was busy being saved by Phil Kessel and not doing anything of note come playoffs.
Crosby showed he couldnt do shit in the playoffs in 2019-2021 with his team getting out in R1 and his production being horrific at like 6 pts in 14 games
How can a 28 year who being beaten by three players older than him be the best player since Mario?

His era was ass
The new era just has flat out better players and talent
Mack, kuch, Drai are not far off from Crosby/OV level players.
